Bar gauge panel

The bar gauge simplifies your data by reducing every field to a single value. You choose how SmartCollect SC² calculates the reduction.

This panel can show one or more bar gauges depending on how many series, rows, or columns your query returns.

Bar gauge visualizations allow you to apply:

• Data transformations
• Field options and overrides
• Thresholds

Use the following options to refine your visualization:

• Show - Choose how SmartCollect SC² displays your data.
  • Calculate - Show a calculated value based on all rows. For a list of available calculations, refer to List of calculations.
  • All values - Show a separate stat for every row. If you select this option, then you can also select a Limit, or the maximum number of rows to display.
• Value - Select a reducer function that SmartCollect SC² will use to reduce many fields to a single value. Click the Value list to see functions and brief descriptions.
• Orientation - Choose a stacking direction.
  • Auto - SmartCollect SC² selects what it thinks is the best orientation.
  • Horizontal - Bars stretch horizontally, left to right.
  • Vertical - Bars stretch vertically, top to bottom.
• Display mode - Choose a display mode.
  • Gradient - Threshold levels define a gradient.
  • Retro LCD - The gauge is split into small cells that are lit or unlit.
  • Basic - Single color based on the matching threshold.
• Show unfilled area - Select this if you want to render the unfilled region of the bars as dark gray. Not applicable to Retro LCD display mode.
